emptywheel actively participated in a law enforcement investigation that she was actively covering, and then hid this fact from readers for many months. Media then took her claimed rationale at face value (as though collaborating with the FBI is normal journalistic activity)

I have no idea what she provided the FBI. Nor do you. So why speculate? At least she’s honest about speaking with them, whether I think she should of or not is irrelevant. However, I can defend her journalism, which I think speaks for itself.

Have you considered whether the fact that she had an undisclosed personal stake in the investigation tainted her journalistic coverage of the investigation?
